Anna in the Raw • Anna Harouvis has been keeping things healthy for 20 years with her Good to Go Cafe and juice cleanses. But even she gets sweet-tooth cravings, so Harouvis found a solution: raw, vegan and gluten-free popsicles made from her cold-pressed, nutrient-packed juices. "I missed ice cream and I missed treats," says Harouvis. "So I thought, Why not just freeze them into popsicles?" Try this • Aphrodite, made with pineapple, apple and mint, 1360 E.

Chill Pop Shop • Chill Pop Shop owners Maggie and Elizabeth Pryor's pops come in 30 off-the-beaten-pop flavors such as sea salt strawberry cream and cucumber kiwi inspired by desserts or experimentation with in-season fruits. "We've had a lot of luck where the first time we come up with an idea, the first time we throw it together it works," says Elizabeth. Grab any of their icy treats from their wheeled cart at places such as the Cleveland Flea. Try this • Watermelon lime, chillpopshop.com
Popsmith • Tim Knorr, a former farmer, took up popsicle-making as a hobby and turned it into a business in June 2013. He serves 11 in-season summer flavors such as black raspeberry chai and sour cherry rose at places such as Countryside Farmers' Market in Akron. To come up with flavor combinations, Knorr considers what's in season at the time. "Then we just think of a flavor that's an answer to that," he says. Try this • Rhubarb orange blossom, 234-738-3826, popsmith.com
